## **FEEDBACK FROM CARERS** 

“Gateshead Carers really do care for the carer and support them through all their life challenges.” 

“Gateshead Carers have helped me a lot, and it’s great that I’ve been able to access the wellbeing fund through them, as this helped me to start driving lessons, so I can get my disabled son out and about. Thank you Carers.” 

“Speaking to Gateshead Carers has given me peace of mind that I am not alone and that there is someone on the end of the phone who understands what I am going through.” 

“I’m glad I was given your number to contact you. I wouldn’t have known where to start. I’m new to all of this and cannot thank you enough.”
